I am at the beginning of the process too, and I also am a mother, I have two little girls.

I have to loose at least 100+ to get to where I need to go..

Are you nervous? I am not yet but I am sure I will be when it gets closer...

Do you have a date set to have your surgery, I don't yet I have a few more things I have to get into the clinic..

Where are having it done?

Sorry for all the questions, I am new at this....

Hope to hear from you soon...

Hey Jennifer!

Glad to hear that you are on this journey as well!! My surgeon will be submitting to ins. next week....then I wait! I'm already so anxious! We are hoping for an early April date!! I am having surgery in Blue Earth..south of Mankato. I want to lose at least 75 pounds..85 would put me in the normal weight range, but I can't imagine that weight!!! Stay in touch...I would love to know how this is going for you!

Hey Ladies,

I am in the Twin Cities. Looking to loose 100+ Off to a good start so far.

Have you been banded yet? I just got my first fill last week. Some restriction, I still need to fight with myself to make better choices!

I am a Mom of one sweet sweet four yr old girl :()

Good Luck...We can DO this!

I am a 27 yr old mom of 4 from MN and going to a lap band seminar next thursday.

If I decide to do this how soon would a surgery be scheduled? Im wondering if anyone knows the process since I am very new.

I have bad health and my weight isnt helping my health so they suggested this.

I would love to keep in touch with everyone. I need someone to help me through this.

My email is blue2cry@hotmail.com

How are you MN Moms doing? Still on here? I would love updates. I have been away over the summer and I want to get back to being active on this site....it helps to have friends!

I have been stalled over the summer...which is better than gaining! I am looking forward to a Winter of losing...RIGHT!!!:thumbup:
